About NearAlert: Weather Alerts
NearAlert provides severe weather alerts and local weather warnings for dangerous conditions near you. Get notified about thunderstorms, lightning, avalanche danger, typhoons, hurricanes and strong winds when supported warnings affect your location.
NearAlert is designed for people who want important weather alerts without the clutter of a traditional weather app. There is no temperature dashboard or overloaded forecast screen — the focus is on severe weather, nearby hazards and clear safety information.
When a supported weather warning is issued, NearAlert can compare your location with affected warning areas and help you understand whether the threat may be relevant to you.
Depending on the available data, an alert may include:
• hazard type and severity
• distance to the affected area
• warning start and expiration time
• direction or estimated approach
• concise safety guidance
• the warning information source
Supported weather hazards may include:
• thunderstorms and lightning
• severe weather and storm warnings
• avalanche danger
• typhoons and tropical cyclones
• hurricanes
• strong and dangerous winds
NearAlert can also help you monitor saved places such as home, work or travel destinations, so you can keep track of weather hazards that matter to you.
Availability of weather alerts, warning types and features depends on the country, region and available data sources.
NearAlert is an independent weather alert app and is not a government service. In an emergency, always follow instructions from local authorities and official emergency services.
